"Good.bye Charley"

Charley simply that aud nothing
more-was the name by which plain
aud not over fascinating German was
known at the boarding house No. 124
Ross avenue. lie had for quite II long
while held the important position OF
dishwasher aud wood-sawyer at that
quiet, home-likc inn, and by close at
IGNITION to business, fidelity TO every
trust imposed and unostcntatious COM
plance with the moderate demands of
the situation he had gradually won the
confidence OF the landlady and numer-
Gus inmates of the house. Indeed, he
had recently been entrusted with the
important duties of looking after the
ice, answering the ring of the milk
man and catering to the wants of the
culinary department. Charley was
not handsome, for he was stoop-shoul-
dered and his mug did not resemble
that of bold cavalier nor remind one
of the fountain of youth, but, better
than all, he was Charley Oh the spot"
at all times and believed to be honest (;
therefore, he was valued and promptly
paid for his services aud looked
upon as au indispensable fixture. But
he is gone. Like lost opportunity, he
lives in the memory as thing of the
past, to return, perhaps, nevermore'
Yesterday evening he was entrusted
with several dollars and memoranda
of select articles 10 tempt the palates
and tickle the fancies of select
coterie of boarders, but the supper
hour came and passed, the night
waned and the morning dawned, yet
up to this good hour Charley has not
returned. IL is feared that some evil
has befallcn him--lhat he may have
wandered away TO Fort Worth
and been robbed. Ii he be yet in the
land of the living aud his eyes should
rest upon these lines, 1t Is hoped his
heart will melt and that he will return
TO fill The vacancy in the disb-pan and
assist in balancing up the cash account
of the landlady.

following from oxford county:

reason OF having defeated several local clubs Of
more or less renown In their immediate neighbcr-
hood, do thereby claim the amateur champion
ship Of the State Of Maine. The Oxford Base
Ball Club, champions Of Oxford county, having
Jailed TO arrange one game more with the
Skowhegan Base Ball Club even proposing 10 the
latter club that game be played ON their home
grounds or at Lewiston for the championship OF
the state, and accepting their excuse that their
ball season was over. do now most decidedly dis
pute their claim 10 the aforesaid title and refer
them to the Oxford Base Ball Club for further
particulars. Per order Manager.
